kernel: Missing check in fs/inode.c:inode_init_owner() does not clear SGID bit on non-directories for non-members

The inode_init_owner function in fs/inode.c in the Linux kernel through 3.16 allows local users to create files with an unintended group ownership, in a scenario where a directory is SGID to a certain group and is writable by a user who is not a member of that group. Here, the non-member can trigger creation of a plain file whose group ownership is that group. The intended behavior was that the non-member can trigger creation of a directory (but not a plain file) whose group ownership is that group. The non-member can escalate privileges by making the plain file executable and SGID.

hw: Machine Check Error on Page Size Change (IFU)

Improper invalidation for page table updates by a virtual guest operating system for multiple Intel(R) Processors may allow an authenticated user to potentially enable denial of service of the host system via local access.

Features in F5 BIG-IP 13.0.0-13.1.0.3, 12.1.0-12.1.3.1, 11.6.1-11.6.3.1, 11.5.1-11.5.5, or 11.2.1 system that utilizes inflate functionality directly, via an iRule, or via the inflate code from PEM module are subjected to a service disruption via a "Zip Bomb" attack.

BIG-IP iControl REST vulnerability

Undisclosed requests to BIG-IP iControl REST can lead to information leak of user account names.  Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

BIG-IP TMM vulnerability

In BIG-IP tenants running on r2000 and r4000 series hardware, or BIG-IP Virtual Edition (VEs) using Intel E810 SR-IOV NIC, undisclosed traffic can cause an increase in memory resource utilization.   Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

BIG-IP MPTCP vulnerability

When TCP profile with Multipath TCP enabled (MPTCP) is configured on a Virtual Server, undisclosed traffic along with conditions beyond the attackers control can cause TMM to terminate. Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.

BIG-IP HSB vulnerability

When a stateless virtual server is configured on BIG-IP system with a High-Speed Bridge (HSB), undisclosed requests can cause TMM to terminate.   Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated.
